Abstract

Pulmonary blastoma is rare malignant neoplasm usually situated peripherally in lung and composed of epithelial and mesenchymal components that resemble the lung at about 3 months gestation. Fortysix year-old man had no symptoms and signs, but solitary pulmonary nodule was found accidentally in a routine simple chest X-ray occupying right upper lung field. Preoperative chest CT-guided aspiration cytology revealed adenocarcinoma. We had done right upper lobectomy with Iymph node dissecton therapeutically. Final postoperative pathology reported this tumor as double pulmonary blastomas(well differentiated fetal adenocarcinoma). We report a case of pulmonary blastoma with review of literature.
